Notes

Studio recording, original 1985 version. Guitarist Yuri Kasparyan used a Yamaha SG200 into a Yamaha G100-212 solid-state amp for the main riff section. No evidence of pedals or additional effects in the original studio recording. Remake/reissue gear (2024) is not relevant for the 1985 recording.

Difficulty

The riff requires tight, syncopated strumming and clean articulation, but does not involve advanced techniques or high speed. Moderate difficulty for intermediate players.
